Hmm, well, I spend a lot of time on the internet, but I don't call it an addiction. I've pretty much accepted it as a part of my life. I leave my XP account logged in at all times so whenever I need to access the internet, I just do it like that. It comes in handy. Say I'm having a conversation and we get into an argument about a largely known fact, I just check online. I'm playing a videogame and get stuck, just check online. I'm practicing guitar and want to know how to play "Lonesome Town" by Ricky Nelson, just check online. It's night time and I have absolutely nothing else to do, I sit down in front of the computer and read about news and contact whoever is still up. I buy, sell, and trade basketball cards online. All the while I still find time to have real relationships, play sports, go to work, and do other non-internet related things.
It's just a part of my life, and I'm glad to say a large portion of my internet time is spent right here on the TFP.
